why is it so hard for Pearl Jam to do this? Thirty-plus years and they're still being precious with their music. lots of what-if's on random message boards.

get over yourselves.
Sure, but was there an anticipation stage with little info, where speculation was rampant on VW boards?

Yeah, I got a minute or so in, and it was ruining my excitement. Not because of the music. It's just so hard to enjoy such a shitting recording.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

ha, i don't frequent them if exist. i do know VW put out a newsletter to their fan club (saw it on socials) a couple of months ago saying their new album was finished.

we've know that PJs album was done since Sept at least.

For a moment, I was wondering why Volkswagen was releasing an album.

I think with DOTC the streaming release was 9pm PST / 12am EST. Can anyone confirm?

I am surprised we haven't heard at least a snippet of the single through Simmons or other pods that may be friendly to the band...
